Custom locking plug for P18 end?

Gatsby! How goes it in New Mexico?! No new updates to pass along at the moment

Awwww. I am always a little antsy when new things seem close. I'm well, but I am actually on an extended stay in the Great State of Minnesota right now. It's been a shock to my system readjusting to ice and snow that isn't gone by noon and food that doesn't get your adrenalin moving.

I think this thread was getting to far down on the list so I figured I would bump it up. I am very curious to see this and the 306 t-tip.

Hey David... Any news on the New Locking Button for the P18?

 

[jivefly]

I think a great idea would be to machine a metal matching SS cap that is made to fit over the button and into the finger groove and the best way I can think of to do this would be to make it magnetic.

David has mentioned on a few occasions that he is developing a new locking button which will be compatible with current P models. I'm looking forward to that...

I could be wrong but I am pretty sure the steel that David uses is not magnetic.

That is correct, the stainless steel is non-magnetic.

Bumping for new info on the locking button (and the 306 t-tips/adaptors).

The Great Gatsby! How goes it? I wish i had really good news for you, does delrin whistle tips count as those are due in at the end of the week, but i still don't have a firm date on the others. I will estimate in May. ;-)

It goes. I know its an estimate, but get ready to be poked with a stick around May. The problem with this darn P18 is that it has taken away my desire to look for any new gear so my new-toy-itis really depends on P18 enhancements.

bumpin it up, I know its only been a week but wanted to see if there was news.

David is so tremendously busy right now from what I can see. Not sure how much time he's had to put into new projects, but I would imagine it wouldn't be very much at the moment. He's at 6 weeks wait time for the Precise PV's. A locking button would be an awesome touch on the Precise though. I think what I'll do until he gets something in the works is use a piece of vinyl tubing to slip on the end.

Oh yeah I understand that, and with good reason. The precise line is fricken awesome, but I think I remember David mentioning that the plans were sent to the machine shop but I could be wrong. It does not hurt to bump this thread up to keep it in mind because usually the ones who scream the loudest are the ones that get heard.

Try using the Vape Mate to loosen the atty a bit. Device disabled. Quick and dirty solution to this issue IMO.

Lastest estimate is about 3 weeks on the locking button....

At least I will get paid a couple more times before ordering again. Thanks David.

You and me both.....
